Ok smartie pants.
I want to use crypt++ for transparent encrypted file access in emacs.
It supports some options like 'crypt' or 'des' that use the same named
programs to handle the hard part. This works fine under solaris, but
under linux, without said programs I am hamstrung.
Anyone had any luck using the openssl commands as a plugin replacement
to, for example, 'des' with crypt++? That would be swell.
On an almost unrelated note, once I have used the 'enc' incantation
above, how do I decrypt with openssl? There is no symmetric 'dec'
command.
> openssl enc -des -in file -out file.des
Given 'file.des', how do I get back to 'file'?
Thanks,
John Hunter
